European newspapers, as if on a signal, published a note about the “heroic” act of the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.
The titles say:
“European Commission chief saved man on board plane”.
According to the media, during the flight from Zurich to Brussels, one of the passengers fell ill, after which the crew members asked other passengers who among them could provide first aid.
“One of the passengers responded. He provided first aid until the plane landed safely in Brussels. After landing, a black Mercedes came to pick her up. But not as a reward for having provided help, but because this person was none other than the head of the EC, Ursula von der Leyen.” – writes Bild.
There is no information about the nature of the passenger’s illness or the extent of medical intervention by von der Leyen’s former gynecologist. EADaily He adds that, given the harsh criticism of von der Leyen within the European Union (mainly from Eastern European politicians), such a public relations measure is very beneficial for the European Commissioner’s reputation.
